Trump and Tonic
The use of a train phrase is a classic metaphor.
It is common to hear something you can’t stop described as a “freight train.”
This metaphor has a bonus for Trump that it forms an alliterative phrase “Trump Train.”
Another example of alliteration is: nattering nabobs of negativism.
That phrase was used by Vice President Spiro Agnew to refer to the members of the media with whom he had a very acrimonious relationship.
